Although Jaya Bachchan has occasionally come out of her long hiatus from the industry to do occasional films like in 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham', the actress has not done a major full-length role in many years. Now reports suggest that she will be joining the sets of Marathi filmmaker Gajendra Ahire.
The yet-untitled film will go on floors in March with a shooting schedule of 20 days. Ahire is a celebrated name in the Marathi film industry with critically acclaimed films under this belt like 'The Silence' and 'Shevri'.
Bachchan is currently a full-time politician and a serving Rajya Sabha member from the Samajwadi Party. She is currently serving her fourth term after being re-elected in 2018. The actress was last seen in Arjun Kapoor's 'Ki and Ka' and had also shot for Rituparna Ghosh's 'Sunglasses' alongside Naseeruddin Shah but the film remains unreleased.
